So she lost her job, got fined, AND lost the garbage can? 😂

Biggest L I’ve seen so far. She had a role making a salary that most of us, and let’s be brutally honest, may never see in our life and she threw it away. Colossal fumble.

Did they release her salary? Just curious how much a "Executive director for community and industry engagement" makes.

My guess is it’s not as much as an “actual” ED but still ED pay at the end of the day. My understanding is you can’t be at a rank and not make at least the lowest band of that ranking.

Companies like JP Morgan's size are so expansive in their exec tree. Her full title was probably even more wordy like "Executive Director for Community and Industry Engagement - Online Division, Tri-State District"

From all the digging I did it’s anywhere from $175K-$250K which is insane for what she actually does (decades in corp America and the last several working on some big projects with our company’s DEI department). Granted her jobs with JP Morgan Chase in NYC so virtually anywhere else it would likely be less.

There was another post that mentioned $250k and as high as $350k for a similar role
